Throughout the month of October 2017, the Photo Press is helping raise cancer awareness and the importance of consistent checkups. We are doing this by bringing you a cancer survivor or caregiver story each week. These stories are written entirely in the author's own words and they not only tell you what has happened in their lives, but also the people that have helped them throughout their journey. We want to thank those who have shared their stories with our readers and also those businesses that have helped bring the stories to you, our readers.
